Fun Fun Fun!
Well, although things have been crazy with all the house stuff, we are managing to do a few fun things while summer lasts! Simeon and I made a cake and a card and decorated a bit for Deyan's 28th birthday on August 11th!
Unfortunately, we only had 25 candles! :)

We took in 2 Folklarama shows. For you non-'peggers, Folklarama is a very fun annual festival of cultures. There are over 40 pavilions set up all over the city over the course of 2 weeks, each representing a different culture/place. They serve authentic food and present some form of entertainment relative to them. In the past years we have attended the Spanish and Japanese pavilions. We usually go for Deyan's birthday since it always falls during the festival! This year was no exception. We went to Cuba for this special occasion. We had to stand in line for over an hour, but it was well worth it! The food was delicious and the latin dancing was very fun and energetic! They told a 'story' with their music and dance that was very comical and made fun (in a good way) of their own chaotic culture. I wondered how the kids would do, being up so late (since we missed the first show) but they loved it! Simeon is quite the little dancer! :) This week we did Brazil. The food was ok, but the show was great! Lots of rhythm and crazy flips! They were doing something called Capoeira which is a combination of dance, music, acrobatics and martial arts created centuries ago by the slaves and natives. Very cool! Once again, we stood in a long line and didn't even get a seat inside, but the kids did great! Everyone commented on what musical children we have, especially watching Simeon's moves! :)
Since we parked so far away, Deyan and Simeon took the 'new and improved' exhibition scooter!

Everything was free (with a donation made to Cancer Care) and we had a blast! A friend came along with her kids and parents too. It was nice to get out of the house and enjoy some sunshine again!
A few of the highlights were: all we could eat corn on the cob and perogies and popcorn, sun bracelet, tour of the warehouse, and...
Ambulance tour with coloring book and stickers
Petting Zoo
Chicks and their parents
Chinchilla - A lady was walking around with this little creature on her purple fuzzy hat. Simeon asked her if he could have it on his hat!
Bunnies!
This calf looks so big next to my babies!
Inflatable bouncers - so fun!
This slide was quite a climb and quite a rush! Good thing my kids love adventure! (By the way, it is so fast that all our pictures are of us at the bottom!)
I think Simeon's highlight was his first pony ride! Can his smile get any bigger! He is growing up so fast!
